An example of how this could be implemented:
- Create a new “Cuts” label category:
- All movies with a “Cuts” label that matches the “Cuts” label of at least one other movie will be presented using a special “Multiple Cuts” info/preplay screen. For example, the mockup I created above:
- One of the special options available in this “Multiple Cuts” info/preplay screen would be “Manage Cuts”. This would allow you to choose the display order of the cuts, choose the default cut, select whether the poster for the movie is of the default cut or a mashup of all the cuts, etc.
- It probably doesn’t make sense to allow a movie to have multiple “Cuts” labels (I don’t think a single cut could be of more than one movie), so this should be limited to a single tag.
This would be both simple for Plex to implement (by leveraging the existing collections functionality), and easy for users to manage.
